Re: Docker usage

I know that VSCode has at least some support for connecting to and browsing remote servers over SFTP, and I believe Eclipse does as well.  Additionally VSCode has some ability to work with WSL as well.  In sighted developer land it's not at all uncommon that you have to edit projects on remote servers, and some companies actually mandate it for security, so lots of tools for this sort of thing offer some sort of support for this case.  Whether yours do is of course the important question.

If you're thinking that "will this IDE be accessible on Linux" is an important question, it's not: you have lots of options to exhaust before anyone is at time to use Orca every day.

WSL can be installed in about 5 minutes, then you open a normal command prompt and type bash.  This will run most things that are typically found in a PHP stack, up to and including databases, Apache, and Nginx, with the only downside being that you won't be able to get things to auto-start with your machine.  Docker is actually a client-server architecture where the server (by default) runs on a Linux socket, so you can then install Docker for Windows, go into its settings and enable network access, then install the normal Linux Docker CLI and export an environment variable to get it to use Docker for Windows's daemon instead.  You won't be able to tell the difference between this and running Docker on an actual Linux host.

If you actually want to learn Docker itself, first keep in mind that in all likelihood someone else at the job is responsible for it and you won't actually need to do anything but run containers other people hand you.  And secondly, don't focus on how/why it works, just learn how to use it.

Last time I had to use Atlassian, it was not very accessible from the screen reader perspective.  It's livable, but by livable I mean that as a very much empowered power user I still had trouble.  WCAG and all that cover a lot of ground and sadly blindness typically means needing to have hit 100% of it before it really matters and often "we have WCAG" is really just code for "you can change the font" or whatever.  Makes great PR though.

Finally a quick note that tmux is a lifesaver if you learn it, with respect to needing to manage multiple shells at once.  It's like screen but easier to learn, so if you already know screen disregard it, but if you don't know about those sorts of tools it's a really great way to avoid the alt-tab has 15 things in it problem.
